Mommy Monday {29 Weeks}

I am back! After a long 2 weeks of no internet, we are finally back in the 21st century! We are all moved in {not settled, by any means} our new house and are all getting over colds/sinus infections. It's been a long 3 weeks. Throw in a 2 day long BLIZZARD that brought us at least a foot of snow in APRIL and it's just been crazy around here. 

We also finished up state testing at school so I am feeling a lot less stressed. Only 6.5 weeks left of school and I am free until November {I get to take my maternity leave at the beginning of the school year, just like I did with Lennon}. Now, to just make it through these next 6.5 weeks without losing my mind. 

I'm happy to report that I do not have Gestational Diabetes! I passed the one hour test and am so relieved. I was really worried about it because I've been alll the sweet things. 

I'll just get to it. No need for me to ramble on and on. 



How far along?  29 weeks, 4 days
Total weight gain/measurements: Ugh! I am now up more than I was with Lennon. At my last appointment at 28 weeks, I was up 20 lbs. Which is not terrible, but I think I'm definitely eating more than I should be. I'm starting to feel full much faster these days, so hopefully that will slow me down a bit. 
Maternity clothes: I'm full comfort over here. It was 60 degrees today, which made me super excited about my spring clothes and dresses!
Stretch marks: None to report and hoping to keep it that way. I'm lathering my belly in Burt's Bee's Mama Bee. I have added The Honest Co. Belly Balm and just love the smell of it. I'm currently using both of these to make sure my belly is nice and moisturized. 
Sleep: I'm still waking up around 2:30-3:00 am every night. It's like clockwork. We have gotten our new KING bed and it is glorious. I have definitely been sleeping better since we've gotten that. 
Exercise: Beachbody On Demand is still my go to workout. However, I haven't been doing much of anything {except moving and unpacking, relax, I'm not lifting anything} the last couple of weeks. My plan is to get back in the swing of my exercises this weekend. I have still been going to my Prenatal Yoga on Wednesdays. 
Best moment this week: Being done with state testing! That was a month long stressor in my life that I'm glad to be done with, until next year at least. 
Miss anything? Exercising! I've got to get back in the swing of things. 
Movement:  She's moving and shaking all the time!
Food cravings: Watermelon and strawberry unfrosted poptarts.
Anything making you queasy or sick? Nothing is really bothering me these days!
Gender: Girl #2!
Labor signs: No and let's keep it that way!
Belly button in or out? In, but sneaking it's way out. 
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or moody most of the time: I'm still pretty emotional. Especially with Lennon's tantrums.   
Looking forward to:  Lennon's Birthday party!

Until next time!
